She was a dressmaker, and he was the love of her life. 

Marcus Brownswood, even just his name sent tingles down her spine. She loved him with a passion that threatened to burn her from the inside. And she was sure he loved her just as much.

Then he broke up with her. 

The night he was supposed to propose; the night Priscilla knew her life should have been perfect. So she retreated into herself, convincing her shattered soul that Marcus was protecting her. He had to, he loved her more then anything; Priscilla was sure of this. 
But then Marcus Brownswood comes back to town with a pretty fiancee, and little does the happy couple know, that by asking Priscilla to make the wedding dress, they had just sealed their fates. 

They thought Priscilla was a simple woman who had a knack for making beautiful gowns.

But the Dressmaker was so, so much more.

He watched as her eyes skimmed over his dark eyes and black hair with barely a reaction. He felt his pride twinge a bit so he went further. Lifting his hands, he let the blood drip from them. Her eyes widened slightly and her chin rose. She looked at his hands then back at him. His dark eyes gleamed in a challenge. "You've not harmed me or mine, faery." She spoke out loud. "Blood does not scare me and neither do you. Keep your dog on its leash." Then she turned and calmly walked back inside. Intrigued now, he went to the window of the house and watched as she reassured her mother that the dog was gone "I'll see you tonight, reckless child." He promised softly. **** Marcus felt himself beginning to wake and struggled to stay in the dream. But it was no use. His eyes opened and he released the pillow his hand was gripping. It was the same one that she had laid her head on every night. His head went into the pillow heavily for a moment, breathing in her faint scent. He hated and treasured dreams like that with equal fervor. He rolled over on his back and stared at the ceiling. It had been decades since she'd been forced to break that promise. He lifted his hand and touched the ring that had been her last gift. It had been decades, but it was yesterday. ***I did not skimp on the steamy scenes so consider yourselves warned ok? There are also a few violent scenes that I'll try to remember to put a warning before so you'll have a heads up. Any of the pictures/artwork were found online so I reserve no rights to those just the story. But I do reserve all rights to the story. This story runs concurrently with "Bloody Desire" and "All Roads Lead to Rome" Awesome new book cover is courtesy of @ScarlettOlivier. She's awesome. Check her stuff out.

"Father? " she calls in a cranky tone "What is really the meaning of these documents? ". He scoffs and sips his coffee less concerned " What does it look like? " he snaps "It's an arranged marriage obviously". He continues reading his newspapers and a tear drops down her face. " Father why are you doing this to me? " she whimpers "Why do you badly want to punish me? ". She chokes back the tears that were threatening to pour out " Because you've refused to grow and change!" he rasps "You have just decided to kill me before my time. You have already done enough and i'm quite fed up". He closes his newspaper and leans closer to her. " You are going to show up on your wedding day and marry the man i have chosen for you. Don't make things harder than it already is". He sprang up and storms out, she fell to the floor sobbing in unbearable pain. *Helena, a perhaps spoilt, wealthy young woman with the face and body. Of course she's every mans' dream but she rather sees men as a toy to be used and tossed aside. Actually she prefers the opposite, she doesn't want to fall victim of a situation where a man will use her and dump her like they are termed to always do. "So, literally she has no care in the world. But now the table has rotated and she's in for a forever game. Apparently, the above argument shows that her father signed an arranged marriage with a man she has never met and un-fortunately, there's no turning back........... Read More.......

(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "Attract a lot of attention, huh beautiful?" His voice hit me like a wall, absurdly catching me off guard. It was deep, sensual, something any girl (or boy) could melt over. I was sort of speechless, yet trying my best to appear unafflicted. "Only the wrong ones." That was definitely drunken me talking, as I didn't usually have that much confidence. His lips twitched up into a smirk, expressing that he understood my comment. "Does that mean that I'm in that category?" My palms began to grow sweaty and my heart rate picked up, but otherwise my body remained relaxed, appearing completely fine. It similar to when you're on autopilot, completely withdrawn due to intoxication. "I suppose not," I crossed my arms, putting on this seductive persona just for him. This fueled his smirk, about to murmur another comment before I cut him off. "You'll have to show me, though." *** Amelia Hollis was a 23-year-old writer at one of the local publishing companies, assisting a very handsome man and writing articles left and right. Her and her best friend, Aviary, lived together in a cute little apartment off the central part of the city, yearning to create new memories and important moments. Amelia always lived for the moments, taking in every little detail and savoring it like it was her favorite meal. She was an optimist, hoping to change peoples lives with her dreams. James Vallette was a 34-year-old CEO, building his company from dirt with the help of his brother. He was a realist, not really having time to deal with dreams or even love. He knew this the night he laid eyes on Amelia. It was only casual; what harm could a one-night stand do? Oh yeah, he's her dad's boss.
